More acceptance and understanding now I enjoyed reading Walter Bird Jr.&rsquo;s story, &ldquo;Gay teens work through &lsquo;awkward&rsquo; times.&rdquo; It certainly can be a challenge for gay youth to come out to family and friends. In some places there appears to be more acceptance and understanding than when I was a teenager. I wish I found acceptance and understanding among my peers while growing up. Some people are ignorant about human sexuality. To the young people, I say live your life and be yourself &ndash; being yourself can be a great way to be.

GARY RICH Worcester

WoMag on Facebook: Readers sound off about Higgins Armory John Woodman Higgins would be so proud of all of us who are speaking out. The museum must be saved, Higgins would see all bumps as tangles only, and that through discourse and intelligent and creative thinking, could untangle this all into an ethical decision. We will not give up Higgins! RIP good man.

WoMag on Facebook: Readers sound off about Higgins Armory It is just so special seeing the collection at the Higgins building....it will not be the same at WAM. I do not want it to close, always loved going as a kid...so much so that I had my wedding reception there. It was beautiful and just magical & always knew I would be returning with my children in the future. It is sad to think that something that has such a important part of history & meaning to me won&rsquo;t be there anymore.
